Vids other than surfing thread (cool doccos, movies etc)
"Lost traveler spends 13 years building resort in paradise" (in Indo)
I have mixed feelings about this docco on one hand im like, *rolls the eyes*, another naive bule arrives in Indonesia buys(leases) land and builds a resort.
And it doesn't help that through the docco when staying in Bali, he is always based in Canggu.
On the flip side, the dude had a dream and never gave up, and you have to respect him for that and that he learnt Bahasa Indo too.
No idea how he remained single for 13 years in Indo though, it would have been ten times cheaper and easier if he had an Indo partner.
Anyway still worth a watch

I hope the blue tarp isn’t a thing now. I can see the temporary convenience, but…..
Slow TV
Ballet of death.
Title is misleading and melodramatic but this is a job that’s out of the ordinary.
Champagne and oysters in the old west?
Free feed included in the price of a drink?
I found this interesting history.
ps. Not free but at the SeeSpew Hotel at Shorncliffe in the 90’s you could get a $2 lunch to fuel your day. Start of my shift work days in my 20’s. Hit em up full of choof at opening (after work) smash schooies for a few hours then bangers and mash, carrots and peas with gravy, then troddle off home for a sleep before catching the train back to work that night. Was fun a couple of days a week.
pps. Catholic Church bought the place as they had a big school next door.
ppps. and shut it down.
really enjoy the vids you post @seeds. gonna make these pork and beans at some stage (maybe with some sardines and french-fizz on the side).
Yeah I’m giving it a go too. I’m puzzled how such a simple recipe can taste good.
Would you eat this? I’m sure it’d taste good(goat is delicious)but it looks rank.
haha, the boodog goat would taste great, but yeh : P poor buggers need a pizza oven or large grill.. (it was like watching lego-men make, cook and eat a normal-size pork-sausage, using gristle pieces to warm their hands).
re pork and beans, going back to basics is very good, then you can adjust with little touches, rather than fistfulls of stuff. I remember the first meal I made that tasted like a 'real' meal, in a share house (we always ate pastas and stir-fry using EVERYTHING in the fridge, capsicum, cauli, broccoli, tomato, chicken, corn, sweet potato, drowned in soy or pasta sauce, and coriander or parsley):
I just fried beef strips in sesame oil, garnished with grated carrot, beansprouts and toasted peanuts. It was delish.
Any wonder this is the best on the market. I was surprised by quite a few things in the process and a byproduct. Episode 3.

gotta be in this thread don't it? harry finding flaws in the system, like masturbating on a plane.. you been watching these @seeds?
Heya b6,
I was a bit confused when it’s saying published 3 days ago as I’d watched Harry do the swim ages ago.
I found the clip and says 3 years ago. Either way nuts doing that with all the marine traffic.
haha, yup, a mate pointed out he'd sent it to me ages ago : P
actually, this is a better place to post some noise I watched at the Old Bar last monday.. tunes it ain't!
("whelve" clip from last year)
.
Richard Moore, the skater, played too.. I've assumed 'Morbid Mondays' at the Old Bar were some tragic goth thing, but it's a real nice coming together of an avant garde community for a bit of a leg-stretch.. nice vibe
Buggered if you do. Buggered if you don’t.
Some good visuals to help dumdumbs like me to understand to a new level.
Excellent doco just released on Paul Hester. Gone too soon.
This was a good watch, Jakarta's mountain of trash and the people who sift through it for a living, and you will never guess what they are scavenging and what they use it for.
This was also good mainly for the couple he mets that show him around.
Airborne : Nature in our Skies
This show was pulled after poor ratings + punters say about 5 mins were cut from BBC episodes

But don't be swayed by that...give it a go...
Most fussy Old School Nature Doco freaks weaned on Attenborough will still get into this...
Not complaining if a few minutes go missing for Ad breaks...coz there's not many ads.
For that reason alone it's a win for a start!

TBB the episode recently with the rays flying in their mating ritual was incredible.

Indonesia is full of so many contradictions in so many different ways but this place takes the cake.
